First Prenatal Appointment

Today our long awaited 1st prenatal appointment arrived. I had to wait 45 minutes, but that was not really a surprise. Eric came in the room with me, and he was SURE glad he did! Dr. H did a physical exam, a PAP test and check my blood pressure which she said was "perfect". We listened to the heartbeat with the doppler and when I asked "Are you sure that isn't my heartbeat" she said "Oh you don't believe me" and whipped the doppler off. I though I was getting cut off for not believing her, but she took out this neat little handheld ultrasound and we got to SEE the baby! We saw little arms and legs and saw the baby wiggling around. She also showed us the heartbeat on there. I am so pumped that she did that for us!

It was sure a great day in the city, I got some plain maternity shirt, a pair of maternity pants for work and we went to a movie! Even Eric said he had a good day in the city, normally he hates it!
